Operation of branded Giraffe devices in other operators’ networks depends on many factors, primarily the operator’s security policy, the device connection and activation procedure, and the configuration of the device itself. Intellecom does not guarantee operation and does not accept any claims regarding the operation in other WiMAX networks of any certified Intellecom devices purchased from Giraffe.

The modem MAY be disconnected immediately without using the “Safely Remove Hardware” function:
• when trying to connect to the network;
• in the state of “network search”, “connecting” and “modem not found”;
• in any other static states.
The modem MAY NOT be disconnected:
• during software installation or removal;
• when the system is detecting (looking for) newly connected devices;
• when the system installs or updates the device driver;
• during software update.

Payment for Giraffe services is based on the principle of prepayment, thus, the account balance needs to be toped up before the beginning of the following month. You may choose any method convenient for you to put money into your account (see "Where to pay").

In the end of the calendar month, there should be enough money on your personal account to cover the monthly fee for the following month as per your chosen tariff plan. The monthly fee is charged automatically at 00:00 on the first day of every month. If the amount available on your account at the moment of charging is less than the required amount of the monthly fee, the service may be suspended until the account credit is replenished to the amount sufficient to pay the monthly fee.

If in the end of the prepaid period there is no money on your account to pay the monthly fee for the full month, your Internet access (except for access to the Giraffe website) will be discontinued. You may make payment any time, after which the connection will be resumed automatically.
